Can it go worse? Of course it can! CIPA posted the new February camera shipment data and they ave been put on graphs by Personal View. 2014 was a terrible year for the industry and 2015 started even worse. I have no clue when this fall will end if we will ever see some recovery again. Seems like interchangeable camera systems will become a niche and remain so for the time being. Don’t know what could change the trend. Is there some kind of tech or innovation you have in mind that maybe could bring back “life” to the industry?

There is yet no info about the price but the other version do sell for around [shoplink 52416 ebay]$100 on eBay (Click here to see them)[/shoplink].

Fredrik Gløckner had a quite genious idea to record the E-M5II sensor shift image stabilization in action! Watch the video!

Via facebook Lensbaby announced that it will show a new lens on April 7. This is likely going to be a 55mm f/1.6 lens. It’s yet not clear if there will be a Micro Four Third mount version of the lens. I think they will ship a Canon mount version first and a MFT mount version later just like it happened with the 58mm f/3.5 fisheye lens.
